Our leadership made using and excelling at Copilot as one of our Key Results for upskilling, I make it point to make my code look as botty as possible to show how serious I’m about achieving the target 🎯
They add excessive logging too. I had cursor write some UI code and I thought my console was going to explode. Console logs each step of the way haha. I guess that’s the easiest way for it to debug its own code
One of my colleagues submitted a PR with a bunch of emojis in the readmes and log statements and I’m just so infuriated with it.

I just made a CI pass to forbid non ASCII characters in the code. Found a lot of em dashes :(
There are plenty of non ASCII characters that are okay in code. ñ comes to mind. There are also box drawing characters.
We don’t use them in my project, I only added an exception for ©®™ and such. You can easily whitelist any character range you need. My command looks like this:
This is goofy, I’m not gonna fail a build because somebody used some random Unicode character. That’s draconian.
I literally see it everywhere in my companies’ documentation
In the logs???
Yeah, they used ⚠️ in a warning.
